SWEET AS A PEACH.
THRILLING EPISODE IN THE LIFE OF MRS. EMILY ROBERTSON.
Asleep on Picket Duty—President Linc*ln Yields to a Child's Appeal— Mercy that Come too Lale.
BAITIXOBB, Md., March 28.—Tester day an old lady died in this city whtse romantic life history portrays a series of the saddest and most dramatic events which could be evolved from the brain of a romancer, and which also graphically illustrates the kind nature and noble heart of Abraham Lincoln, sixteenth president of the United States. In the early part of the year 1863, just at the time when the great American civil conflict was at its very height, this old lady, Mrs. Emily Robertson, lived in Pittsburg with her only child, a sweet little girl aged five years. The husband and father was a private in the Northern Army of the Potomac. One spring morning that year the
WIKKS FLASHED TBKRIBLB NEWS to this lady sitting in her quiet home praying that God would spare her loved one and the father of her child. The message was signed by one of his comrades and read:
iUVtlVfTI VWUMiMVl* the army such that no one can save him bat President Lincoln.

THE FIRST KXPKKSS TBAIK
-which left Pittsburg for Washington after that telegram had been delivered bore a sad-faced, weeping woman, accompanied by a rosy cheeked, laughing ohila, who could not imagine why
bad started so soon on such
a long journey. The next morning this lady's request to see Linroln at the Executive Mansion met with a peremptory and emphatic refusal. The President would be engaged with very important business all that day and she could not see him until the next day. This was all the reply vouchsafed her to all her tears and earnest pleedings. In the supreme agony ana importance of the moment the Droken hearted mother for-
ot the presence of the child ceased to of all else save the life she came to save.
UNNOTICED, THB LITTLE OIBL passed out of the open door the apartment and strayed at will through the White House. The halls were thronged with rushing orderlies and messengers. No one paid any attention to the child until she accosted one of the old colored house servants, who was enjoying a ulet stolen nap in an obscure, out of way recess. *'L WANT TO 8KB LINCOL' —she could not speak plain—she said to hlm The old negro woice up and looked aghast with amazement. "Dar he am, honey," he replied, "in dat big room ober dar. But, chile, yeu musn't go in dar, honey he aip inspectdn' matters an' am mighty busy." Without another word the little girl pushed opeu th^fioor indicated by the aged darkey and spared. The President was engaged In grave and Important consultation with a number of gentleman, now dead, bat whose names will forever adorn the pages of American history. So deeply Interested were they all that not one of them noticed the brave little maiden until she caught hold of the knees of the nearest itleman present, and cried: '*1 want
qu Ih
gent to see Lincol'. May I Then all eyes pon the little gi long, li| ringlets, and Lincoln exclaimed: W
Lincol'. May I Then alley were turned upon the little girl with her
ST
flushed face, bright eyes an nglets, ana Lincoln exelaii hello, little one! Where did you come from? What Is your name?" For a moment only the child was abashed, aad timidly replied: "My name is 'LITTLB SWEET AS A PEACH.' "IF
For a brief period the interest and destinies of flftv millions of people were forgotten. Everyone present laughed heartily—even in the midst of their gloomy forebodings—not only at the words of the answer, but at the accent and shy manner of the diminutive speaker. When she perceived the mirth ahe had unintentionally created, she cried: "That is what papa always tailed me before he went with the boom-a-lad-les, and mamma always tails me that since. Is you Mr. Lincol'? "I am that «ame man," laughingly replied the President. In a second sne was in his lap with her arms around his neck and tears streaming down her cheeks. Then ahe told her story with a passionate outburst of childish eagerness. "THE BAD MAN DOWN STAIRS won't let my mamma see you and she's down there tryln' lots of big tears aud prayin', but he won't let her turn up. You can save my papa, I know. And you will, won't you, please, Mr. Lincol1? Please, please, please do, and I will dive you a millioik Usses. Mamma will tiss you, too, Mr. Lincol'. And I will dive you lots, and mamma says they are worth just lots of dollars, and mamma
tiss you and bog you too, if that nasty, old ugly man would only let her." And the little girl wound her arms
AROUND THE PRESIDENT'S NETS, kissing him repeatedly and sobbing as if her heart would break. A sad silence fell over the entire party and there were tears on several faces. Lincoln rang a bell, looked at his watch, and then gravely said: "Gentlemen, I need not ask you to excuse me for a few minutes." He hastily wrote a few words on the first piece of blank paper within his reach, and handing it to the attendant who replied to his summons, kindly caressed the child upon his knee, and cheerily said "There, 'Little Sweet as a Peach,'
THAT BAD MAN DOWN STAIRS A -cannot keep your mother from seeing •Mr. LlncoP' now." In a few moments
Mrs. Robiuson was before the Ptasktent who still retained the little girl on his knee. She soon told, in a vsk* broken with emotion, her sad story, and showed Lint- mit the dispatch received by her in Htfet' trg the previous day. Soon all the net -«ary facts were placed before tbePnwidi and then, without a moment's bee ittan, be wrote a telegram, signed It 'i hat wondrous signature, which then "Quick," as be gave it through at bis watch it waaa •old WM to be a* twelv* "Msdaui, *"h* gravely said, -v. mm•-Umost finn.n-ic with tey-bsf r.

Then b# glanced at eleven o'clock, and the promptly at
shouted with boisterous childish merriment, "I have saved your husband. We have fortunately an hoar to spare, and he will not be ahot. In pardoning him I disobey the dictates of my judgment and comply with the promptings of my heart, ana the only reason that I do it is because 'little Sweet as a Peach' here begged me to do it." And thecom-mander-in-ehief of a million men mnaatrn THB CHILD TENDERLY and kindly dismissed both. The now exultant andjoyful mother with little "Sweet as a Peach" hastened from the Executive Mansion to the nearest telegraph office, where she sent tBe following -r
DISPATCH TO HER HUSBAND: My darling, your life has been saved by our noble President. Thank God and him for bis great kindness and mercy. Little Sweet as a Peach did it all. Answer by dispatch, care of this office, so I will feel positive you arealive and aafe.

telegram, Mrs. Robertson began the seemingly long, impatient wait for the reply. She remained in the office until tireaofi,ts surroundings, she went to the noarest candy stand on the street and purchased from the delighted Italian owner enough candies and cakes to keep "little Sweet as a Peach" sick for a whole month. Then she wandered aimlessly through the streets, varying matters occasionally oy returning to the telegraph office and asking the clerk if he bad received any reply for her.
AT LAST, COMPLETELY DISHEARTENED at the seemingly long delay, she sank down exhausted in a chair in the office, which bad been kindly placed at her disposal. She had been there only a few moments when the following telegram was placed in her hand:
AN AWFUL BLOW.
Tour dispatch to your husband just received and under the circumstances, I opened it. I am very sorry to tell you that Lincoln's telegram came fifteen minutes too late. Delayed in some wsy. Your husband is dead. Will send the remains wherever you request.
ROBERT. N. VATJGHN.
AS THE POOR WOMAN GAZED
at this terrible message, so shocked and overwhelmed by its contents that she was scarcely conscious, another dispateb was handed her, containing earnest expressions of sympathy and regret tor the unfortunate circumstances surrounding the case, from the general who had, in strict oonformity with the stern mandates of modern war, superintended the execution of her husband. While "Little S weet'as a Peach," greatly alarmed at her mother's strange ana altered demeanor, cried: "Mamma, mamma, what is the matter Has anything happened to papa she fell to the floor utterly unconscious from the terribly unexpected shock. She was at once removed to a place of safety and kindly cared for by newly made friends, but ft was months before she bad fully recovered from the fearful shock. "Little Sweet as a Peach" to-day is little no longer. She is a tall, dignified, beautiful young woman living in this city. Sbeis happily married, with a "Little Sweet as a Peach" of her own, who is almost an exact duplicate of what her mother was at her age, and a young son, who rejoices in the name of Abraham Lincoln.
IT 14 certain that the longer a speech, the weaker it is, but not so with a cold, the longer it runs,the worse it beqongAS. A cold, be ififever so slight, is no *r^, it should be chocked in its early stages. Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup is the "Balm of Gilead" that millions' say is divine in its origin.
WHAT MEN MARRY AND WHAT THEY GET. "I remark*" says a writer in the San Francisco Examiner,''ss I sat at the dressmaker's window, that, after all, San Francisco women are the most stylish dressers anywhere to be seen—their figares so slim, and yet so round and perfectly in proportion .set off the exquisite toilets admirable. 'Every woman seems to have a pretty shape,' I remarked, innocently. "Madam looked at me with surprise. 'Don't you know that we have more bother over these same figares than making a dozen dresses? he went on. 'A woman comes here as fiat as a pancake—no bust, no hips, no nothing. "Here is velvet and brocade," say my customer. "Made mean elegabtly fitting7 dress, and of course you will have to make.my figure first.'' 'When I build up the figure, several sheets of wadding are pinned over the hips, and it takes quite a time to make the proper shape. Then the bosom of the corset, being perfectly empty, is neatly packed with more wadding. Wadding is also laid in the hollow of the chest, where you may often bury an
Ted my block, I go
to~work to fit. The wadding placed on the flgureetaoeslnto the dress, and yards of stiff crinoline are packed into the drapery at the back.' 'So, then, madam, most of your fine figures are thin.' 'Skin and bone, you mean and don't I turn them out well?' said the exultant dressmaker. 'Well, you certainly do but what a disappointment they must be to their husbands when they marry,'I say, reflectively. 'Well, I should rather think so the men marry plump young partridges and find them in the end simply bags of bone*.'"

HOW A SOUTHERNER ASKS YOU TO DRINK. Si, Detroit ITree FSen.
I dont say that a true southerner would be mortally offended if yon refuse to drink with him, yet when he invites yoa you somehow feel that the invitation comes right from his heart and yon fed mean not to accept. Don't imagine that he walks around hunting for somebody to swallow lfquor in choruses with him. His invitation ofaly after yon have sat down with him ana had a chat on old times and future prospects. He is shy of you at first. You can feel that he is soaadingyon and trying to make an estimate ol whether you will do to tie to.. By and by he warms up and does two-thirds of the talking. Iforther on he hitches his chair a little closer. Then he grays more confidential, and first you Know, he taps your arm or your leg with hfct finger to emphasize his remarks. An invitation to drink is notrfar off. I have watched it in 100 cases, and I never,' it to fail once.

CARDS AND THEIR EMBLEMS. Every one at some time has experienced the singular effects, either of chance or calculation, which result from the various dispositions of the cards, and it may afford somq clew to the reason why a pack of cards is so generally chosen as a medium for divination to explain the principle on which they were originally constructed. The two colors of the cards, red and black, correspond to the two equinoxes. The four suits answer to the four seasons. The emblems formerly were—and still are in Spain—for the heart, a cup, emblem of Winter the spade, an acorn, the emblem of Autumn the club, a trefoil, the emblem of Summer, and the diamond, a rose, the emblem of Spring. The twelve count cards correspond to the twelve months, and were formerly depicted as the signs of the zodiac. The fifty-two cards correspond to the number of weeks in a year, mWipvthirteen cards in each wit to the number of weeks in a lunar quarter. The aggregate of the "spots" calculated in the following manner amount to the number of days in a year: The number In eaoh suit 55

HAPPY HOUSEHOLDS. It really takes but litil3 to make home happy, provided the occupants look for its greatest charm and chief ornament in themselves, and not in things that can be bought or borrowed. Our best peace and comfort come from the most common blessings of life. A thankful heart makes the best dinner, a pleasant voice is the sweetest music, a kind |lok is a more beautiful picture than was ever painted by a master, old or new. These things cost nothing, and can be bad in the humblest home by the trying.
Live within your means. Make your drees, your house, y&ur furniture, your style of living such as will not subject you to struggle and anxiety to keep up appearances. Be content to set a poorer table than your rich neighbor who has a French cook, and be not ashamed of your faded carpet if yon cannot afford a new one. Do not mind what the outside world says this is your business not theirs. Outside friends and gufcsts must be drawn to onr honses, nof so much by costly dinner serviees and lavish entertainments, as by the kind hearts and gracious manners of tt$se who give the invitation.
